What I'm looking for

I seek senior product leadership roles where I can define global product vision, scale digital learning products, lead cross-functional teams, and drive measurable revenue and user growth in mission-driven EdTech organizations.

I am a multi-disciplined product leader with 15 years' experience building and launching high-quality B2B and B2C education and EdTech products across the UK, EMEA and APAC. I have led teams of up to 40, secured multi-million-pound investment cases, delivered double-digit active user growth and significant revenue uplift, and established internal AI and product-data capabilities to accelerate feature delivery and performance insights.

I specialise in defining global product vision and roadmaps, managing complex cross-functional programmes and driving go-to-market strategies that hit sales targets and improve forecasting accuracy. I bring pragmatic, agile delivery experience, strong stakeholder engagement with C-suite audiences, and a track record of transforming face-to-face offers into digitally enabled, scalable learning solutions.
